+477. ### What is the difference between `==` and `===` in JavaScript
+
+    The `==` operator checks for equality **after converting** both operands to a common type (loose equality), while the `===` operator checks for equality **without type conversion** (strict equality).
+
+    #### Key Differences Between `==` and `===`:
+
+    1. **Type Conversion**:  
+       - `==` performs type coercion before comparison.  
+       - `===` compares both **value** and **type** directly.  
+       ```javascript
+       console.log(5 == '5');   // true → type converted before comparison
+       console.log(5 === '5');  // false → no type conversion
+       ```
+
+    2. **Performance**:  
+       - `===` is generally faster since it avoids implicit type conversion.
+
+    3. **Recommended Usage**:  
+       - Always use `===` to avoid unexpected results caused by type coercion.
+
+    #### Example:
+    ```javascript
+    console.log(0 == false);   // true
+    console.log(0 === false);  // false
+    console.log(null == undefined);  // true
+    console.log(null === undefined); // false
+    ```
